I'm going to let VetWife tell you later tonight exactly how two incredible Kossacks plus a host of donors resolved this situation. Right now, Vetwife and I need a break.
UPDATE 5:25 PM EDT: Those with cash to spare: We need $300 for a rental car wired ASAP. KosMail me for added info.
UPDATE: 4:20 CDT - People are emerging to provide help. Vetwife may need wire transfers for immediate cash - may need to cover deposits of $300 for car rentals but this is not certain yet. If you can wire money contact Vetwife. DO NOT SEND MONEY UNTIL NOTIFIED. You guys are way too generous.
Situation:
Viet Nam era vet Jack freaked out. Jack drove from Inverness, FL to Waltersboro, SC in a panic mode. He is unable to drive safely. We need two people from the Inverness area to drive up to Waltersboro, SC [348 miles], pick him up, and bring him and his car home. Thanks to Kossacks Vetwife has money to pay for their time, gas, food, and overnight lodging. Is there anyone you know able to help?
Reverse solution: 2 people from the general area of Waltersboro, SC pick up Jack. One drives his car, the other drives another car to Inverness, FL. Again, there is sufficient money to do this. We need two people.
Updates when more info is available.
